One OF the great hindrances TO the
effective enforcement of prohibltory
laws 10 such states as Maine, Kansas,
Iowa and Rhode Island, and In many
localities In other states where coun-
" and local prohibition obtains, 10 the
encouragement given to illegal liquor
sellers by the national government
in issuing tax-receipts to prospective
or actual law-breakers in such pro-
hibitory states and localities. The
Forth Texas Gazette calls the atteE-
tion OF Congress to the subject, and
asks that the United States revenue
laws be amended "to the extent that
such licenses TAX receipts) cannot be
obtained In localities where prohibI-
tion or local option laws are Ia force. =
The Gazette says: tit Is well known
fact that when a man concludes that
he will incur the risk of selling LIQUOR
in local option community, the firsl
thing he does is to secure q license
tax receipt) from the internal reve.
nue. collector OF the district. Armed
with that, he feels safe from inter.
ference, SO far as the federal authori-
ties are concerned. He has whole
some dread OF the vigilance and rigor
of Uncle Sam, but will take chances
very cheerfulIy with the state author
tiles, who must rely upon local senti-
ment entirely to enforce compliance
with the law The demand that
such tax receipts be refused By the
national government to applicants ii
prohIbitory states and localities is al
together reasonable and should b
promptly needed and acted upon b.

sardines of the Brittany Coast.

All along the coast of Brittany the
people are for the most part m1serably
poor. They live almost exclusively BY
fishing, and fish, 1t seems, are not to be
relied on any more than men. Their
habits are most irregular; they take a
fancy to a certain locality and then they
leave it; they are creatures always OF
fresh excitement and adventure. This 1s
especially the case with sardines, upon
which thousands Of Breton fishermen
mainly rely. Sardines can hardly be
termed globe trotters, but they are never
theless inveterate tourists. While indulg-
ing their passion for roaming, they thor
oughly believe in the advantages OF social
intercourse; consequently, when they
travel there are millions Of them together.
Some years ago they freqented the Brit
tany coast in such numbers and with such
regularity that capitalists set up manu-
factories In various places for preserving
these fish in oil. Thus they have been
distributed all over the world In those
boxes which are to be found in every am
bilious dust heap.
Both alive and dead it is the destiny OF
the sardine to travel. For some unac-
countable reason the sardine has during
the last two or three seasons turned up Its
very fastidious nose at Brittany, and in
stead of stopping at every bay on the coast,
as formerly, has passed on to other
regions. It is said that the coast OF Portu-
gal has been the one most highly favored
BY the vagrant and capricious fish since
the poor Brittany fishermen have been
throwing up their hands In despair OF
fervently praying for the return Of the
sard;nes. This year the prospect Is much
more cheerful.-Cor. Boston Transcript.
